The Stepping Distance Transformation

An algorithm Mscan is proposed for the computation of the distance transform of a feature in an image with respect to a chamfer distance. The algorithm is na vely simple and can therefore be easily parallellized. It seems to be new, even for special cases. It is not correct for arbitrary chamfer distances but, by a general analysis of masks and their weights, suucient conditions for its correct...

The Transformation Distance

Evolution operates molecular alterations of two types: punctual mutations, namely insertion, deletion or substitution of one residue, and segment-based modi cations: duplication, displacement, deletion or insertion of a segment of the molecule. Up to now, distance or dissimilarity measures used to compare sequences consider only punctual mutations. To our knowledge, no measure attempts to quant...

Benefit and Distance Functions

We explore the relationship between R. W. Shephard's input distance function (``Cost and Production Functions,'' Princeton Univ. Press, Princeton, 1953) and D. G. Luenberger's benefit function (J. Math. Econ. 21 (1992a), 461 481). We point out that the latter can be recognized in a production context as a directional input distance function which can exhaustively characterize technologies in bo...

Multiplicative Distance Functions

We call φ the root function of Φ. The continuity of Φ implies that (1.2) φ(γ) → |γ| as |γ| → ∞. Moreover the converse is true, if φ is continuous and satisfies this asymptotic formula, then the function Φ formed as in (1.1) is a multiplicative distance function. Theorem 1.1. A continuous function φ : C → [0,∞) is the root function of a multiplicative distance function iff it satisfies (1.2). Ar...
